What Was It Like to Live
during the Middle Ages?
Far from being a time of darkness, the Middle Ages was an
essential period in the grand narrative of Western history---one
whose developments are an invaluable part of our own modern
era. But what was it like to actually live in those extraordinary
times?
Find out with The Medieval World, which offers you a fresh
new perspective on the society and culture of the Middle Ages:
one that goes beyond a simple historical survey and entrenches
you in the experience of living during this underappreciated era.
Your guide on this extraordinary historical journey is medievalist
and Professor Dorsey Armstrong. Drawing on history, the
arts, technology, archaeology, and science, her 36 lectures will
deepen the way you understand not only the Middle Ages, but
everything that came after.
